Yet Another Hollywooder
Okay, i'll hand it to Shawn Levy... he knows how to entertain the moment. Real Steel proves that. This thing follows the hollywood mainstream right up until the very end and gives the old honey a little nudge in the side by not making the man...
a too much about family, not enough about boxing bots
shame, the movie had such a promise, being something like the bloodsport of robot movies, instead it focused too much about a family trying to get together again. Hugh Jackman rocks, though.
